The army called the Workers' and Peasants' Revolution, and the banner was sickle and axe. The Kuanglu area does not stop, but must go straight to Xiaoxiang.
The landlords were oppressed, and the peasants all hated each other. During the autumn harvest, the clouds are sad, and the thunderbolts riot.
This was one day a few days after Mao Zedong led the Autumn Harvest Uprising on September 9, 1927, when the uprising was extremely arduous, and he, full of revolutionary optimism, wrote this bold and dry poem "Xijiang Moon Autumn Harvest Uprising".
Perhaps it was precisely because of the different atmospheres mixed with this arrogance that the autumn harvest uprising led by Mao Zedong finally flowed from the land of death and life to the fierce fire, stepped onto the jinggang, and created a unique world of the Chinese revolution and became the blue of the Chinese revolution.
In this stormy revolutionary struggle, a large number of heroic figures emerged at the helm of Mao Zedong, and some people joined hands with him to go from the autumn harvest to the founding of the country and witnessed victory. Such as Luo Ronghuan, Tan Zheng, He Changgong, Zhang Zongxun, Song Renqian, Chen Shiyu, Lai Yi, Tan Xilin and a number of outstanding founding fathers.
However, most of the people, in the long journey after the Autumn Harvest Uprising, spilled blood on the battlefield. Such as Lu Deming, Zhang Ziqing, Wan Xixian, Wu Zhonghao, He Tingying, Zhu Yunqing, Zeng Shi'e, Wang Liang, Chen Yi'an, Lü Chi and so on.
Today, I want to talk about the revolutionary martyr Zeng Shi'e.
Some people have made such statistics according to the existing historical data, and a total of 16 college students participated in the Jinggangshan struggle that year, such as Chen Yi of the Beijing Sino-French University, Luo Ronghuan of Shandong Qingdao University and Wuchang Sun Yat-sen University, Li Caifei, Wu Zhonghao, Kuang Huang, Tan Zhen of Peking University, Deng Zhenqian of Beijing Normal University, Zhu Yiyue of Beijing Private National University, He Tingying of Shanghai University, You Xuecheng of Shanghai Fudan University, Tan Zisheng of Nanjing Southern University and Shanghai Fazheng University, Xu Yangang of Chongqing University of Sino-French, Zeng Shi'e of Xinyi University in Yiyang, Hunan, Wang Liang of Zhizhi University in Shanghai, Zhou Qu of The University of South China in Hunan, and Xia Liu of Peking University.
It can be seen from this that the 16 college students, except for Chen Yi and Luo Ronghuan, who came in the blue wisps of the road and became the founding marshals of new China, the remaining 14 people, including Zeng Shi'e, all gave their precious lives to the revolution.
Zeng Shi'e, who was not only knowledgeable but also militaryly outstanding, was a rare member of Mao Zedong's command during the Jinggangshan revolutionary struggle, and was repeatedly entrusted with heavy responsibilities and made many military achievements. His sacrifice made the soldiers of the Red Army cry collectively, and was even more deplored by the commander Mao Zedong as "the death of Zeng Shi'e, heavier than Mount Tai".
The legend of Zeng Shi'e has been praised in the Luoxiao Mountains and has become a figure with a reputation throughout the ages. Today, I will check the chapters and read the sentences, and talk to you in detail about Zeng Shi'e, so as to commemorate the revolutionary martyrs.

2. The military and government are both military and political generals;
Third, regard death as a return to Tarzan.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="93" > the hot-blooded boy of the first and third Xiang children</h1>
Zeng Shi'e was born on March 6, 1904 in Daqiaochong, Fanjiamiao Township, Yiyang, Hunan. After graduating from elementary school, he dropped out of school due to his family's poverty and worked as an apprentice in a shop. Later, with the financial support of the Ancestral Hall, he finished high school at proverbs college and was then admitted to Taohualun, a church university founded by Norwegians in his hometown in 1906, namely Xinyi University.
In college, he excelled in all subjects, excelled in English, and wrote well. According to the founding general Xiao Hua recalled: Zeng Shi'e's chalk characters are particularly beautiful.
In November 1924, only because of the foreigners of Xinyi Middle School insulting Chinese female students, which aroused the anger of the majority of students, Zeng Shi'e and more than 100 other students voluntarily withdrew from school, forcing the school to be suspended for half a year. Zeng Shi'e also interrupted his studies and went to Guangzhou on foot to participate in the revolution. Later, due to insufficient travel expenses on the way, he had to stay in Jianghua County, Hunan Province, and was introduced by the trustee to work as a clerk in the county office. Yu Nian returned to Changsha and entered the Shasan Branch of the Whampoa Army.
In 1925, he joined the Chinese Socialist Youth League. Dispatched by the party organization, he went to Jianghua and Shuikoushan to engage in the workers' movement. He joined the Communist Party of China in 1926. He was ordered to work for the student corps of the Officers' Training Center of the Fourth Division of the Xiang Army, but was expelled for supporting hengyang and peasant association activities. In the summer of 1926, after the Northern Expeditionary Army entered Hengyang, he was ordered to transfer to the Eighth Army of the National Revolutionary Army to participate in the Northern Expedition, and was introduced to the Communist Party of China by the instructor Su Xianjun (a native of Liuyang County, a member of the Communist Party, who later defected after participating in the Autumn Harvest Uprising).
At the beginning of 1927, he entered the Shasan Branch of the President of the Whampoa Army. He participated in the Northern Expedition and served as a company commander in the Guard Regiment of the General Headquarters of the 4th Army of the National Revolutionary Army. After the Northern Expedition reached Wuhan, it was transferred to the Guard Regiment of the General Headquarters of the Second Front Army controlled by our Party.
In 1927, Chiang Kai-shek and Wang Jingwei betrayed the revolution, and the Chinese Communist Party was forced to fight back, launching the Nanchang Uprising and the Autumn Harvest Uprising. Due to poor information about the uprising and obstruction by the Kuomintang Zhang Fakui, Zeng Shi'e's guard regiment failed to participate in the Nanchang uprising, which provided a joint premise for the autumn harvest uprising that followed, so that later, the guard regiment became the main force of the autumn harvest uprising.
Zeng Shi'e was also able to meet Mao Zedong and follow the battle in the following revolutionary career, becoming Mao Zedong's most important general in the future.
In September 1927, the Autumn Harvest Uprising broke out on the border of Xianggan and Gansu. The rebel armed forces were unified into the 1st Division of the 1st Army of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army, with a total of more than 5,000 people in the division, with Mao Zedong as the former secretary of the party committee and Lu Deming as the commander-in-chief, under the jurisdiction of 3 regiments: the 1st Regiment, located in Xiushui, composed of the guard regiment of the former Second Front Army of the National Revolutionary Army, the Pingjiang Workers' and Peasants' Volunteer Brigade, and the peasant self-defense army of Chongyang and Tongcheng counties in Hubei Province; the 2nd Regiment, located in Anyuan, consisted of an Anyuan workers' picket, an Anyuan mining police force, and some peasant self-defense forces in Anfu, Yongxin, Lianhua, Pingxiang, Liling and other counties; the 3rd regiment, Located in Tonggu, it is composed of the Liuyang Workers' and Peasants' Volunteer Brigade and the Guard Regiment and the Pingjiang Workers' and Peasants' Volunteer Brigade.
Zeng Shi'e was first in the first regiment, and then he was incorporated into the third regiment as the chief of staff of the third battalion.
The uprising was unfavorable, the troops suffered several setbacks, and internal differences were fierce, and this temporarily formed unit embarrassed Mao Zedong, the former secretary of the party committee, several times, but fortunately, with the support of Lu Deming, Wan Xixian, He Yingting, Wu Zhonghao, Zeng Shi'e, and other generals, they turned the tide and moved their divisions to JinggangShan in the middle of the Luoxiao Mountains.
Later, in the Sanwan reorganization, Zeng Shi'e was appointed as the commander of the special agent company of the first regiment of the First Division of the Workers' and Peasants' Revolutionary Army, becoming one of the seven company commanders at that time, numbered four companies, and the party representative was Luo Ronghuan, the founding marshal of the country.
The so-called special service company is a company that performs special tasks in marching operations, explores the enemy's situation, acts as a sharp knife, serves as a guard, and has the combat effectiveness of one to ten, so the special service company is the strongest company. Mao Zedong's discernment and selection of Zeng Shi'e, who was very good at military and political qualities, as the company commander showed his special appreciation and respect for him.
On the way to Jinggang, the rebel army passed from Yongxin Sanwan through the ancient city, Ninggang, Maoping, and then to Jinggang, and the special agent company basically clung to Mao Zedong's side, serving as Mao Zedong's guard in a platoon.
On a October day in 1927, the weather was getting colder and the soldiers were still wearing tattered single clothes. In order to solve the problem of winter clothes and supplies, Mao Zedong led his troops into the town of Dafen in the west of Suichuan City. Unexpectedly, they suddenly encountered the enemy, and the troops rushed to battle, fighting and retreating at the same time.
Zeng Shi'e led two platoons of special agents to run with Mao Zedong to huang'ao, collected scattered soldiers, and served as a grouping task for a battalion. There were only about thirty men left in the secret service company, a look of fiasco. Hungry, he could only go to the homes of ordinary people to beg for leftovers and kimchi peppers. There was no home for eating, and Mao Zedong, like everyone else, reached out and grabbed it from the rice basket to eat. When everyone was full, the optimistic Mao Zedong stood up, put his feet together, looked at Zeng Shi'e, and said to everyone with great energy: "Now come to the line!" I stand first, please shout the password of the company commander! Zeng Shi'e's heart was shaken, and he quickly sorted out his clothes and hats, strode forward, and shouted: "All assemble!" One by one, the soldiers were full of confidence, raised their heads and chests, and quickly stood up with their guns in hand, looking at Mao Zedong's tall body. When the first battalion caught up, the team waved toward Jinggang Mountain.
It is precisely because of zeng shi'e's full support that this contingent of autumn harvest uprisings is firmly in the hands of Mao Zedong. Therefore, zeng Shi'e and others were able to finally smoothly go up to Jinggangshan and open up revolutionary base areas.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="95" > second, the military and government of jinggang Xiao general</h1>
When the team first went to Jinggangshan, Zeng Shi'e led his troops to participate in the battles of conquering Chaling and attacking Suichuan and Xincheng. On November 18, 1927, Zeng Shi'e led a company of special agents with a battalion to capture Chaling, where the Red Army established China's first county Soviet government. Later, Zeng Shi'e, together with Wan Xixian, Zhang Ziqing, and He Tingying, waged a resolute struggle against the betrayal of Chen Hao, Xu Shu, Han Jianzhuang, and others who tried to secretly pull troops to defect to the enemy, and preserved the revolutionary forces and the Chaling regime.
In April 1928, the troops of the Autumn Harvest Uprising and the Nanchang Uprising met in Ninggang, and Mao Zedong, Zhu De, and Chen Yi met at the Wenchang Pavilion of the Dragon Academy, and Zeng Shi'e led the troops to defend the work.
From 1927 to 1931, Zeng Shi'e led his troops to fight in Fujian, and after dozens of vicious battles, small battles were difficult to win, the charge was in front, indestructible, wounded many times, and made outstanding military achievements. Because of his outstanding military achievements, he was repeatedly promoted, and his position was promoted from company commander, battalion chief of staff, detachment leader, to column commander, division commander, and until chief of staff of the Red Fourth Army.
Even Mao Zedong's garrison at Jinggangshan was the place where Zeng Shi'e's guard company encamped. The Second Column led by Zeng Shi'e and the later 11th Division were also the main forces that Mao Zedong relied on and liked to use the most.
On June 23, 1928, the Red Army fought the enemy at New Seven Ridges Creek. Zeng Shi'e, armed with a shell gun, ran to the front and chased the enemy and lashed out. The fleeing enemy ran through the bushes and fired back at gunfire. Zeng Shi'e braved the bullets that "squeaked" and "squeaked" randomly, like an angry tiger, and pounced on it, grabbing the hot barrel of a enemy soldier and dragging it with force, dragging the enemy soldiers and their guns to the ground. Frightened, the enemy soldiers fell to their knees and prostrated vigorously for forgiveness, becoming prisoners. Seeing this, the comrades-in-arms shouted in unison, bravely rushed to the enemy, and wrapped a regiment of Yang Chisheng's troops in "dumplings" at the mouth of Longyuan. The Red Army took advantage of the situation to capture Yongxin County for the third time, and the Jinggangshan revolutionary base area began to enter its heyday, and Zeng Shi'e's prestige was greatly enhanced.
In late July 1928, Mao Zedong led his troops to Guidong to meet the large troops of the Red Army, leaving 1 company and 3 companies of the 31st Regiment to guard the Huangyang Boundary. The Xiang enemy Wu Shang, with the strength of a division, approached Jinggangshan from Chaling in an attempt to capture Jinggangshan while the rear of the base area was empty. Receiving the news of the enemy's invasion, Zeng Shi'e, the commander of the 3rd Company who was recuperating from his wounds, could not care about the pain of his wounds, walked to the five major outposts of Jinggangshan to observe the terrain, and together with other comrades and local armed leaders, organized the Red Army and the masses to repair fortifications and clear the field.
On the morning of August 30, under the deployment of He Tingying, a deputy to the Regiment Party, and Zhu Yunqing, the regimental commander, Zeng Shi'e and Wang Liang, the commander of a company (one said to be bright), specifically commanded and participated in the famous Huangyang Boundary Defense War, and won a great victory in the defense war.
Later, Mao Zedong received this good news, was extremely excited, instructed to kill a pig, comforted the combat troops, and wrote the popular poem "Xijiangyue Jinggangshan":
The flag is in sight at the bottom of the mountain, and the drums and horns at the top of the mountain are heard. The enemy was besieged for thousands of times, and I stood still.
Barriers have long been tightened, and more united in will. The cannons on the Huangyang Boundary roared, reporting that the enemy was at night.
Mao Zedong wrote in his inscription: "On August 30, a division of the enemy's Xianggan and Gansu armies attacked Jinggangshan when our army was about to return to the battlefield, and our defenders had less than one battalion, and by taking advantage of the danger to resist, they crushed the enemy and preserved the entire base area. "This battle was a famous classic example of the Red Army winning more with less during the Jinggangshan period, and played an important role in the consolidation and development of the base areas.
In January 1929, Chiang Kai-shek mobilized the strength of eight brigades of Xianggan to attack Jinggangshan, and after the Red 28th and 31st Regiments broke through and turned to the enemy in Southern Gannan Province, Zeng Shi'e, who was the commander of the 1st Battalion of the 31st Regiment, led his troops to participate in the battles of Dabaidi and Changlingzhai successively. In March of the same year, in order to facilitate guerrilla warfare, the Red Fourth Army changed the formation of the regiment into a column. The 31st Regiment was organized into 3 columns, with 7 and 9 detachments under its jurisdiction, with Zeng Shi'e as the commander of 7 detachments. In the autumn of 1929, Zeng Shi'e served as the chief of staff of the 3rd Column, assisting Wu Zhonghao in organizing and commanding the battle of Baisha and directly approaching Shanghang. Shanghang City faces the river on three sides, surrounded by a wall of more than three meters high, known as the "iron wall". Easy to defend and difficult to attack. On September 21, the Red Army fought fiercely all night, completely annihilated the enemy Lu Xinming's brigade, and conquered the city in one fell swoop. In this hard battle, Zeng Shi'e led three columns and one unit to attack the East Gate, took the lead in the rain of bullets and bullets, bravely killed the enemy, and attacked the head of the city, showing extremely high command ability and sacrifice spirit.
In the arduous revolutionary struggle, Zeng Shi'e and General Mao Zedong not only forged a deep revolutionary friendship and comrade-in-arms. Moreover, it was even more able to enable Mao Zedong to perceive the micro and know the people well.
When the Red Army laid siege to Ji'an in 1930, Mao Zedong and Zeng Shi'e walked into a local Catholic church and saw an organ. Zeng Shi'e's heart was full of hair, and he ran forward and pressed the piano keys a few times. Mao Zedong also came up and tapped a few times on the keyboard. He smiled and said to Zeng Shi'e: "I can't do this foreign play, you are also "pig nose with onions - pretending to be elephants", not better than me! The two immediately laughed, and the warriors followed suit.
In the spring of 1930, Mao Zedong found that the combat effectiveness of the 2 columns of the Red 4 Army had declined somewhat, and military discipline was also somewhat lax. Mao Zedong was the first to think of Zeng Shi'e.
After Zeng Shi'e came to the team, he and political commissar Luo Ronghuan established iron discipline, implemented the system of "party branches built in companies", focused on "the party commanding the gun", and also developed a number of outstanding party members, so that they played a pioneering and exemplary role in the team.
Soon, in just a few months, the Military Discipline of the Second Column Army was renewed, and obvious progress was made in all aspects.
Mao Zedong also praised them in the article: "After the Gutian Conference, Zeng and Luo led the Second Column into a most effective team. ”
From then on, Mao Zedong was even more important to Zeng Shi'e, an all-rounder of culture and martial arts, and was soon promoted to chief of staff of the Red 4th Army and commander of the 2nd Column. On October 3, he commanded 2 columns to attack Ji'an, mainly attacking Mule Mountain in the north of the city. After the capture of Ji'an, the 2nd Column was reorganized into the 11th Division, with Zeng Shi'e concurrently serving as the division commander and Luo Ruiqing as the political commissar.
On December 30, Zeng and Luo commanded the 11th Division to participate in the first anti-"encirclement and suppression" Battle of Longgang, and together with the brother troops captured the arrogant and brutal commander of the 18th Division, Zhang Huizhen, annihilating more than 9,000 Zhang's troops, and shocking the Nanjing government. It also caused Mao Zedong to write "Fisherman's Pride and Anti-First Great "Encirclement and Suppression"":
Wanmu Frost was red in the sky, and the Heavenly Soldier was angry. The fog was full of Longgang Qianling, and in unison, Zhang Huizhen was caught in front of him.
Two hundred thousand troops re-entered Gansu, and the wind and smoke rolled in for half a day. Arouse millions of workers and peasants, work with one heart, and do not make red flags and chaos under the mountains.
On May 16, 1931, during the second anti-"encirclement and suppression" campaign, the Red Fourth Army launched a strong attack on the enemy 47th Division's Wang Guanying, which had preemptively occupied two hills, in the area of Donggu Jiuzhiling and Guanyinyan. Zeng and Luo commanded the 11th Division on the front line. As a result, Luo Ruiqing was shot in the cheek, and the situation was critical.
At this time, the surging enemy rushed to a hill in front of Nie Heting's 33rd Regiment position. Zeng Shi'e had no choice but to ask Dr. Ye Qingshan to bandage Commissar Luo's wounds and carry him off the battlefield, while at the same time sharply ordering Yang Dezhi, the commander of the special agent company next to him: "Immediately take the special agent company to take this mountain for me, I can't complete the task, I will shoot you!" Yang Dezhi swung his pistol and shouted, "Secret Agent Company, follow me!" The warriors raised their guns and screamed and killed, blocking the enemy who was three times their size in the middle of the mountain, unable to take a step upwards. Zeng Shi'e led the whole division and the brother troops to fight fiercely for 4 hours, completely destroying the enemy's 47th Division. On May 18, Zeng Shi'e led the 11th Division to pursue and annihilate a brigade of the enemy's 43rd Division; on May 20, he led his troops to capture Guangchang with a large army; on May 22, he participated in the Battle of Nakamura Fukeng Post, fiercely fighting for two days and one night, and defeating the defending enemy.
In the end, under the wise planning of Mao Zedong and Zhu De, and the heroic fighting of the soldiers, the Red Army swept from west to east for seven hundred miles, crushing Chiang Kai-shek's second "encirclement and suppression."
Zeng Shi'e, such a military and political all-rounder, led the soldiers and soldiers to share weal and woe, and took the lead in battle and charged ahead, so the soldiers especially admired him. His team was strictly disciplined, well-trained, brave and tenacious in style, and was one of the most capable of fighting hard battles in the Red Army, and was known as the "Steel Army."
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="109" > third, see death as weight as Tarzan</h1>
In July 1931, the third "anti-encirclement and suppression" battle began. This time, Chiang Kai-shek mobilized 300,000 troops, and under the staff of German, Japanese, and British advisers, adopted the tactic of "gathering troops in a thick way, besieging by separate roads, and driving straight in for a long time," and carried out "encirclement and suppression" in three ways to the central base areas, vowing to strangle the Red Army.
In early August 1931, in the third anti-"encirclement and suppression" campaign, Zeng Shi'e commanded the 11th Division to participate in the Battle of Lianyuan, which completely annihilated the 47th Division of Shangguan Yunxiang and defeated Hao Mengling's division. On August 11, he took part in the battle to completely annihilate four regiments of Mao Wenbing's division. Among them, in the two battles of Liangcun and Huangpi, the 11th Division killed and wounded 500 enemy soldiers, captured more than 20 enemy officers and more than 600 soldiers at the cost of more than 100 casualties, and achieved outstanding results.
On September 8, 1931, a fierce Battle of Joy Wei began. The main forces of the two sides involved in the battle included the 11th Division of zeng Shi'e of the Red Fourth Army and the 60th Division of Cai Tingkai and the 61st Division of Dai Ji of the Kuomintang 19th Army.
At that time, Lin Biao, commander of the Red 4th Army, and Nie Rongzhen, political commissar, repeatedly observed the retreating enemy with telescopes on the position, and saw that the main forces of the enemy's 60th Division and 61st Division had left Xingxingwei for Xingguo, and the mule and horse teams and food burdens had also passed, leaving only one regiment behind to take cover. Lin Biao proposed that the 11th Division cut his tail.
Zeng Shi'e led the 11th Division to quickly penetrate the past, but coincidentally, a dozen did not destroy the regiment, but attracted the enemy's large troops to return to participate in the battle.
Originally, the 19th Route Army was the unit of Jiang Guangnai and Cai Tingkai, mainly soldiers of the two Cantonese nationalities, known for being able to fight fierce battles, wearing shorts, climbing mountains like walking on the ground. Moreover, these two divisions are well-equipped, and usually boast that "bullet casings on the battlefield will not let others pick up one", claiming to be an undefeated "iron army".
Obviously, it is a duel between the two strongweights, and the brave one wins. Only to see the dense sound of gunfire, military trumpets and shouts of killing on the position was earth-shaking. In order to seize a small mountain bag, the two sides had to fight several times in a tug-of-war manner, and the battle was extremely fierce, and there were fallen corpses everywhere. The battle went from morning to afternoon, and the battlefield was glued.
Zeng Shi'e led the officers and men of the 11th Division to fight and fight with the enemy with rifle butts, shuttle markers, large knives and stones... He told his soldiers: "We are the Red Army of workers and peasants, cast in steel, and steel in army. Be sure to eat this iron army!"
At dusk, the Red 11th Division's bullets ran out, more than half of the casualties were inflicted, and the enemy also left more than 2,000 corpses, which were strewn all over the place and stained with blood. The enemy still launched one charge after another, and in the end, Zeng Shi'e ordered the grenades and bayonets to be concentrated, and a death squad of the whole division, with party members and cadres above the platoon level as the backbone, personally led the attack. During the attack, he was unfortunately shot in the chest by the enemy's submachine gun and died heroically. At this time, both sides were no longer able to fight. The Red Army fought for the initiative and withdrew from the battle.
In the Battle of Happy Wei, the Red Army suffered only the most losses since the Red Army's war, killing and wounding more than 2,000 enemy and more than 2,200 casualties, in addition to the sacrifice of division commander Zeng Shi'e, Zou Ping, commander of the 4th Division of the Red Third Army, was also killed in this battle.
Cai Tingkai, who commanded the battle by the Kuomintang army, later wrote in his memoirs that at that time, "seeing this scene, he was in great danger, and he was indignant and wanted to commit suicide to be martyred", and afterwards "for three days, day and night could not close his eyes ..."
At Zeng Shi'e's sacrifice, Yang Dezhi and all the soldiers wept bitterly, and Mao Zedong heard the bad news of Zeng Shi'e's sacrifice and was full of sorrow. Because of Zeng Shi'e's sacrifice, he also severely criticized Lin Biao, saying: "How can you get senior cadres to go to the front!" The cadres are all gone, how to do the revolution! ”
Later, at the celebration meeting of the victory against "encirclement and suppression", Mao Zedong asked the soldiers in the audience to collectively mourn for Zeng Shi'e, saying: "Zeng Shi'e's sacrifice was heroic, he sacrificed at the most critical time, he personally led the troops to charge, changed the battle situation, and his death was heavier than Mount Tai!" ”
According to Chen Shiyu, then chief of staff of the 34th Division of the Red 12th Army and later founding general, he recalled: "Chairman Mao once said that the death of two people was heavier than that of Mount Tai, one was Zeng Shi'e, who spoke verbally, and he heard it with his own ears. Limited to the early conditions of the Red Army, it was not recorded. The other is Zhang Side. ”
He also instructed the General Political Department of the Red Army to issue a circular order praising Zeng Shi'e for his "firm revolutionary stand, bravery in combat, and not being afraid of sacrifice," and calling on the commanders and fighters of the Red Army to learn from Zeng Shi'e. The General Political Department of the Red Army issued a circular calling for learning from individuals, which had no precedent before, and Zeng Shi'e was the first person.
<h1 class="pgc-h-arrow-right" data-track="110" > Epilogue: Hero Effects</h1>
Although the hero is dead, the hero's name is still there.
In 1950, the general cadre of the Revolutionary Military Committee of the Central People's Government pointed out: "Comrade Zeng Shi'e is an outstanding cadre of our party and our army, and it is a great loss to sacrifice for the revolution. "
In the early 1980s, General Xiao Hua once told Huang Yao, the chief writer of the "Biography of Marshal Luo Ronghuan": "If Zeng Shi'e was there, he should be a marshal, and Zeng Shi'e's sacrifice was greatly shaken in the Red Army." ”
In January 1983, when Zeng Shi'e's stepson Zeng Tianyuan visited the founding father He Changgong, He Changgong also said: "If Zeng Shi'e is there, he should be a marshal, at least a general." ”
In December 1983, Tang Guanghui, former deputy political commissar of the Jiangxi Military Region and an old Red Army soldier, recalled his past in the Red 11th Division: "I was a propagandist in the General Office of the Political Commissar of the Eleventh Division in 1931... Commander Zeng Shi'e fought bravely and was good at commanding. He often commanded on the front line and went to the positions of regiments and battalions. He also asked the regimental cadres to go to the battalion, company, and platoon positions, and he even went directly to the front line of the battle. At that time, only in this way could we react quickly and reflect the real situation. He was well aware of the personnel, the weapons, the situation of the battle, how well the troops were performing, and so on. He could call out the names of each platoon commander of the whole division, knew their personalities, combat levels, and other situations, and commanded them appropriately. Every time he marched, he and Luo Ruiqing, the political commissar, went one after the other, one after the other, asked about the situation one after another, and called up people, and there was no need for a roster at all. The commander of the division went deep into the masses and ate with the soldiers on a stove. At most, the chief clerk occasionally left him the same dish. As soon as I arrived at the 11th Division, our superiors taught us that our 11th Division was an autumn harvest uprising unit, that it had a hard time fighting and political work, and that it was resolute in carrying out the orders of our superiors. Chairman Mao liked to use this team the most. ”
Lieutenant General Guo Huaruo, an early cadre of the Red Army and former vice president of the Academy of Military Sciences, called Zeng Shi'e "the best red army division commander." He also said: "The Red 4th Army is the main force of the Red Army, while the 11th Division is a prominent political and military combat effectiveness, and is the main force among the main forces." ”
At that time, the commander of the Red 3 Column, and later the founding general Xiao Ke, had personally seen Zeng Shi'e lead his troops to charge to the front, and the troops brought out by such a general would inevitably fight.
Indeed, according to Zeng Shi'e's seniority, cultivation, style of leading soldiers, and military and political qualities, he was indeed a rare general talent in the Red Army. If, suppose there is, he does not sacrifice, must be a marshal or a great general of the republic.
Heroes and martyrs. Poetry picks up the hero's lifelong merits to remember.
Zheng Rong's situation is exciting, and the red dust of the ten thousand is playing the piano.
The Northern Expedition wave waved its blood, and the autumn harvest made a loud sound one after another.
Luo Xiao Chongling soldiers were strong, and Ganshui Youxi warhorse was yin.
It is a lamentable hero who runs to righteousness, and the monarch is immortal and tearful.
